Don't we just love to complain

Hurricane Earl has come and gone with hardly an impact, leaving New Jersey with a delightful Labor Day weekend.

Here are the hill in Highlands the view is clear and beautiful. I can see well east of Long Beach Long Island. There's still cars entering Sandy Hook but the park will probably close soon. Lot D looks to be full. It should be a great day on the shore.

It's not a great boating day as there is a strong Northeast wind on the Sandy Hook Bay. Maybe the boats will be out tomorrow.

I can't help but be amused by the complaints I've heard and read about the lack of destruction left by Earl.

"I secured the patio furniture for this?!," one friend said on facebook. "There wasn't even enough rain to water the grass!," was another complaint I've heard.

What They Are Saying About MoreMonmouthMusings:

"There is no other website out there with more influence in Central NJ. " ~ Adam Geller, CEO, National Research

" I read your blog all the time." ~ Chris Christie (April 6, 2009 while a candidate for Governor)

"More Monmouth Musings is a must-read. Art Gallagher skillfully covers local, state and national affairs and his blog is a definite stop on the daily news round up. A respected conservative, Art knows when to question conventional wisdom and his guest commentators provide an array of opinions on everything from the State House to the school board." ~ Senator Joe Kyrillos

" dung droppings" ~ commenter on Frank Pallone's facebook page.

"Can't speak for bigoted ignoramuses though so I'll leave that to you and yours." ~ Kathy Baratta

"Retarded" ~ Adam Puharic, former Monmouth County GOP Chairman

"More Monmouth Musings is a romping and rambunctious meeting place for the politically-engaged, and Art Gallagher is the incomparable ringmaster of this unique domain. " ~Scott Sipprelle,future Congressman

"Oh my goodness!" ~ Mayor Anna Little, future Congresswoman

"The most influential conservative in Central Jersey and Dean of the N.J. Conservative Blogging Caucus. First site I check every day... after my own!" ~ Matt Rooney, SaveJersey.com

"MMM is a great source of insider gossip and news in the conservative wing of the Republican Party and the Tea Party. I don’t agree with everything I read, but I keep taking a look- it is definitely entertaining. However, MMM would be better and could have far greater credibility if Art Gallagher didn’t display his biases quite so obviously and ran an unbiased forum for discussion.
